Very diluted Goop or very diluted rubbing alcohol. Be gentle with the scrubbing.

Goo Gone is very good for removing sticky substances.

I do not know if your tent has water proofing but that is something to think about. My son uses hand sanitizer and it seems to work okay.
here are a couple of sites with some useful information:

Begin by identifying the areas of the Family Camping tent with sap stains. If possible, avoid touching or spreading the sap further.

Pour a small amount of rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer onto a clean cloth or sponge.

Gently rub the sap stain with the cloth or sponge. Be careful not to scrub too hard or you may damage the fabric of your family camping tent.

Continue rubbing until the sap begins to dissolve and transfer onto the cloth or sponge.

Rinse the area of your family camping tent with water to remove any remaining sap and alcohol.

If the stain persists, mix a small amount of mild soap or tent cleaner with water.

Dip a soft-bristled brush or sponge into the soapy water and gently scrub the sap stain on your family camping tent.

Rinse the area of your family camping tent with water to remove any soap residue.

Allow the family camping tent to air dry completely before packing it away.

It's important to note that using harsh chemicals or scrubbing too hard can damage the fabric of your family camping tent, so it's best to start with gentle methods first. Additionally, avoid using hot water or a dryer to dry the family camping tent, as this can also damage the fabric.
